Another key event confirmed for Art Month Sydney 2014 is Art at Work: Unexpected corporate collections, which will offer behind the scenes tours of some of Sydney's most comprehensive corporate art collections.

There will also be Designer Collections, where some of Sydney's most celebrated designers share their most treasured objects and discuss how their design backgrounds have informed their collecting choices.

The overall theme for Art Month Sydney 2014 is Intersections and Parallels. Curated by New Zealand born artist and creative industries innovator Scrap Wall, it will celebrate the blending of boundaries between art and design, art and fashion, art and film and the cross-sector collaborations that arise from this. Art Month Sydney will run from 1 to 23 March 2014.
